In this episode of Chefs Without Restaurants, we have Brad Leone. Brad is known for his prominent role at the Bon Appétit test kitchen. Over time, he climbed the ranks to become the Test Kitchen Manager. It was during this period that Brad's magnetic personality and cooking prowess shone through in the form of the video series It’s Alive! This series, known for its humor and laid-back style, garnered a devoted fanbase and revolutionized Bon Appetit's online video content. My personal favorite is when he went noodling for catfish with chef Matty Matheson.

Brad's creativity didn't stop at the test kitchen. He worked on various projects, including the celebrity-guest show Taste Testers, where he collaborated with notable figures like Jeff Goldblum, Jimmy Kimmel, and Paris Hilton. In 2021, he achieved New York Times Bestselling author status with his debut book, Field Notes for Food Adventure.

Now, Brad is embarking on a new chapter, where he continues to explore his approach to food, technique, and traditions. From hiking, hunting, and foraging to fishing and fermenting, his two new YouTube shows Makin’ It and Local Legends promise to take viewers on a thrilling culinary adventure.

Join us as we sit down with Brad Leone to discuss his remarkable journey, his time at Bon Appétit, his exciting new solo endeavors, and much more.
